1 week down. 3 more to go?

[kiwimonk] 12/11/2018 22:18

Hope's all you have!

[crypto_curse] 12/11/2018 22:14

Hopefully this completes and they want to strike whilst the iron is hot

Very much a UK focus even with NGC onboard.

"We are going to build a British public blockchain, the infrastructure of the U.K. I don't think there's anyone else in London with their own protocol."

I'm not in this, but Sarah Williams who owns the Ltd by share capital being acquired 'could' be the Sarah Williams Investment Manager for this UK based ICO.

Well personally, having bought in at 9.4p, id b disappointed if it didnt go to 25p as otherwise what was wait for and all this talk of ten baggers. My concern is what happened at DERR, now S4. They consolidated shares and then added loads of new ones, and new share price means that original derr holders are down on their investments. I sincerely hope that doesnt happen here.

I know it's like asking how long is a bit of string but any ideas on how long the shares will be suspended for?
This is probably one of the more this stressful times I've had a share suspended has it doesn't involve profit warnings or accountancy irregularities in the RNS

And now for the big hypothetical question any idea where we see the share price going from here?

Apart from up hopefully

Just catching up,

China, Singapore, banking, quantum, finance..



Token sale
David Williams, the former chief executive and co-founder of broadband satellite operator Avanti Communications, will steer Crook and his engineers as CEO of Chorum.

Williams explained that Chorum's flagship protocol is a blockchain and ecosystem for enterprises called Arqit. He claimed Arqit is quantum-resistant, meaning it would be secure from attack even from a powerful future quantum computer (a long-term existential worry in the blockchain world).

Arqit has just received a "significant investment" in a token pre-sale from Singapore-based crypto fund Neo Global Capital (NGC), which is part of Chinese blockchain giant Neo, Williams said.

The project uses the open source Corda code base, and a secret sauce of "proof of performance" consensus ("a method of fairly distributing fees to nodes"), with added quantum encryption, he said.



Our Partners
ArQit is focused on partnering with major institutions to protect our future together. The companies partnering to create the quantum satellite network include:

Qinetiq Plc - The Prime Contractor for construction of spacecraft

BT Plc - the partner helping to define the customer requirements

QT Labs - a spin out from Academy of Sciences Austria, led by Dr Rupert Ursin

Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Optics and Precision Engineering IOF The pre-eminent German not for profit academic research and development institute specialising in quantum optical engineering

The European Space Agency - Europe's premier space science research organisation

ArQit is now actively partnering with other blockchain organisations which share the vision and announcements will be made soon



NEO is a globally renowned public blockchain project with a steadily growing ecosystem. As quantum resistance is a core feature and significant aspect of the NEO network, NEO Global Development (NGD) has been pushing forward with relevant research on quantum-proof technology, represented by NeoQS.

Arqit is one of the leading projects in quantum resistant technology. It is now developing a quantum resistant blockchain eco-system for enterprise applications, making modifications on the open source Corda code base and incorporating the unique Proof of Performance Protocol for the first time. Also playing a part is quantum encryption, developed in partnership with a consortium of European companies and universities, and an associated research foundation.

NEO Global Development is officially announcing a partnership with Arqit on quantum resistance research with a shared vision of facilitating blockchain industry development.

Chorum only registered in Feb 2018.No share issues other than 10GBP to list the company.Will be taken out for buttons with Mr Williams becoming a director in the new company

[letmepass] 07/11/2018 11:54

Looks like funding after funding. Shame really

[aidenabettin] 07/11/2018 11:12

Now think e-commerce and crypto security?.Do a bit of bottom trawling and pick up TSI.Resource and commodities blockchain with Cybersecurity and assets. .Dont get locked out.

From someone on LSE:

It looks like ArQit is an integral part of the Chorum business set-up (hxxps://www.arqit.io/). All of the Chorum team are involved in ArQit. The ArQit website quotes the following: “We have an amazing combination of quantum physics, blockchain, and business skills. The team at ArQit were early pioneering members of the community that built Corda. We have a combined 25 years of experience with distributed applications and over 100 years’ experience in space science”. They are talking about quantum computer level security for future ‘blockchain as a service’ (‘BaaS’) products. In one of the articles someone posted earlier is says that “…that Chorum's flagship protocol is a blockchain and ecosystem for enterprises called ArQit. He [David Williams] claimed Arqit is quantum-resistant, meaning it would be secure from attack even from a powerful future quantum computer (a long-term existential worry in the blockchain world). ArQit has apparently just received a "significant investment" in a token pre-sale from Singapore-based crypto fund Neo Global Capital (NGC), which is part of Chinese blockchain giant Neo, Williams said. ArQit is comprised of the ex-RBS blockchain team at its core but also has people from the space industry involved too as this so-called ‘quantum security’ involves sending encrypted info via laser beams from satellites. There are also people formerly of Lloyds and IBM, as well as ‘top 100 blockchain influencers’.

Interesting article on the rest of the team behind Chorum

[flashheart] 07/11/2018 09:05

Thanks for the info phil.

[phil1969] 07/11/2018 09:00

Check out the owner/director Dave Williams background/experience.

hxxps://www.linkedin.com/in/davidwilliamsarqit/

He will have friends in high places to adopt the technology.

[aidenabettin] 07/11/2018 08:50

The big boys and banking sector are entering the crypto sector and Chorum has the technology to handle it."finance grade distributed ledger technology, meeting the highest standards of the banking industry, yet it is applicable to any commercial scenario"

Not sure how it will go nor do I 100% understand exactly what this company does but lets see what happens, at least BLOC have done a deal finally.

[aidenabettin] 07/11/2018 08:27

This is what its all about!!!!!!.https://www.coinspeaker.com/asset-tokenization-will-lead-the-next-round-of-blockchain-development/

[aidenabettin] 07/11/2018 08:14

Still waiting get a few bob into TSI and ignore all the flak before it gets suspended..O/T.Well done Chris Cleverly and African Potash(BLCC) about to launch in Canada.If you can keep your head while all around are losing theirs :)

[aidenabettin] 07/11/2018 08:08

Multiple companies like Chorum under the rader just waiting to be picked up by the public sector.Years of maticulous planning behind the scenes and the UK is ahead of the game

[crypto_curse] 07/11/2018 08:05

We will see. They are building on Corda platform, which is interesting. Anyway, some of you are quick to criticise other posters. Time will tell here but key element is how many new shares will b issued for new entity as that will obviously dictate post-RTO SP, not the monetary value of deal. Basic stuff kiwi!

[kiwimonk] 07/11/2018 08:03

Nice to see you're still here Flash, this should be a nice Xmas Present.

[kiwimonk] 07/11/2018 08:01

They were or are in the process of raising $30m from the East, however maybe this deal with BLOC now takes precedent.
Either way, the boys said it would be before end of year and they have stuck to their word, despite the infantile BB kids on here, panicking like a bunch of women.

Great News.
